INGREDIENTS
8 oz Catfish Fillet
1 tsp Blackening Seasoning
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Lemon Wedge
1/2 cup Cooked Quinoa
PREPARATION
Pat the catfish fillet dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Lightly brush the fillet with olive oil on both sides.
Evenly sprinkle the blackening seasoning over both sides of the fish, gently pressing to adhere.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, carefully place the fillet in the pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side until the exterior is crisp and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
While the catfish is cooking, prepare the quinoa if not pre-cooked.
Plate the fish alongside the cooked quinoa and garnish with a fresh lemon wedge.
Squeeze the lemon juice over the catfish just before serving to enhance the flavor.
